Traded Jonathon Patton [traded to Hawthorn for Future 4th]

[Peel67skin]

You cleared abit, still under salary pressure.

For who? I gave your all their players they offload, you need to give me some name too. Josh Kelly, Cameron, Taranto, Whitfield, Cog, Greene.some of the big name. Other hardly need to paid them more until 2020-2021.

 

[Slysh]

Cap space aside Mitch Lewis would not be involved in the trade, dude is progressing very well for a young KPF.

Only a bit? Really?
Shiel, Setterfield, Scully, Lobb, moved on and Griffin retiring.
That's only a bit?

I have no doubt if we sign all our players we will have a full cap. But there's a reason they were all moved on without much worry (besides the articles from down south).

Cap space, Bulldog, north or even Geelong can offer that too. You need to offer something more. GWS don't need fourth Rd pick they need players to replace patton if Cameron, himmelberg or finlayson injured.

not sure how you can afford to keep Kelly, Whitfield, Coniglio, Taranto, Davis, Cameron, Haynes, Greene, Tomlinson... they ain't gonna be cheap contracts at all...

 

[Roughies Boys]

Cap space, Bulldog or even Geelong can offer.

again Patton gets a say, Geelong doesn't have cap space to take in Patton. Dogs yes, but Patton gets a say...

Everyone is an expert on GWS' cap position.

Meanwhile Hawthorn add high profile recruits and always have millions spare. Cool.

You guys seem to keep one hell of a squad together for long enough.

Who knows how they are structured.

I've never said we keep them all either.

Though of course Haynes and Greene are already signed for pretty much their careers and Davis wont go anywhere.

Because media says we are due another fire sale.
That and players wouldn't stay with us unless they got overs

because they took less to keep the side together, but they were alot older than the boys listed above.

So our players won't do the same?
Very arrogant of you.

not exactly, media is saying you guys need to let a couple big contracts go so then you can fix up the Cameron, Whitfield & Taranto contracts early. if that means Tomlinson & Patton, but you'll play hard ball on Tomlinson as he doesn't have the injury record nor another mil on the books.

 

[Roughies Boys]

So our players won't do the same?
Very arrogant of you.

why should they, they're not 27-30 where they're pretty well set financially & can just look at winning Premierships. Just a team built up from hand me downs by the AFL.

Thanks for proving the arrogant part.

And adding the VFL fishbowl to it.

you don't have to be jealous.

You don't even need Patton.

You don't need Patton mate and you know it

 

[Colonial]

There's zero to be jealous about. Hell even your colours make me glad to be Orange. That's before we get to the character of your president and your captain.

Very true. As I've said earlier I think the emergence of HH (And him re-signing) and Toj has meant that he would probably be moved on.

In no way a fan of that as have always thought a lot of Patton, but it's footy.

you can become a Hawks fan when he moves over

 

[Scotland]

GWS might not need him but Hawthorn aren't entitled to him.

 

[Colonial]

Not even if it was a 2 team comp.

 

[TylerDurden]

GWS might not need him but Hawthorn aren't entitled to him.

Never said that.
In fact, what I will say, is that they'll be pushing him and his salary out the door. We'd be doing them a favour.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

again Patton gets a say, Geelong doesn't have cap space to take in Patton. Dogs yes, but Patton gets a say...

Yes we absolutely do. I hope we dont go for him though.

Never do favour in BF as you don't know who they're.

Don’t think he works with Hawkins. Could be a Decent replacement long term though.
